Pentagon Grounds All F-35s for Additional Inspections

7 July 2014
All of the Pentagon’s F-35s have been grounded due to a runway fire last month. Additional inspections have been ordered by the Air Force and Navy to determine if other jets could suffer the same problem. In a statement, the Defense Department said that the results of the inspections will determine when the F-35 will fly again. Meanwhile, a decision will be made early this week on whether the F-35 will participate in the upcoming overseas airshows. (Image Credit: USN)More Info > (McClatchy)
